Axis Labels

You can specify axis labels by assigning labels to particular variables in the input data set, as summarized in the following table:

Axis

Input Data Set

Variable

Horizontal

all

group-variable

Vertical

DATA=

response

Vertical

SUMMARY=

group proportion variable

Vertical

TABLE=

_SUBP_

For example, the following sets of statements specify the label Proportion Nonconforming for the vertical axis of the chart:

proc anom data=Circuits;
   pchart Fail*Batch / groupn=50;
   label Fail = 'Proportion Nonconforming';
run;

proc anom summary=Cirhist;
   pchart Fail*Batch ;
   label Failp = 'Proportion Nonconforming';
run;

proc anom table=Cirtable;
   pchart Fail*batch ;
   label _SUBP_ = 'Proportion Nonconforming';
run;

In this example, the label assignments are in effect only for the duration of the procedure step, and they temporarily override any permanent labels associated with the variables.
